To help identify these collisions in vehicles like cars, trucks, and SUVs, Apple is relying on a variety of sensors in the watch and its unique algorithm. Only when you are driving does it function.
The new Apple Watch Series 8 has a number of useful fitness and health features, such as ovulation, which will let female users monitor their menstrual cycle, temperature monitoring (at long last), sleep monitoring, blood oxygen monitoring, and many other features.

Tim Cook kicks off the Apple event. He stated that Apple will launch new iPhones, Apple Watches, and new AirPods, possibly the AirPods Pro 2, today. Let's wait and see what products the company announces today at the event. Cook begins the event by announcing the Apple Watch.
After nearly two years, Apple is holding an in-person iPhone launch event.
The stage is set for Apple to unveil the new iPhone 14, Watch Series 8, AirPods Pro, and other products.
Did you know that 'Far Out' is being held at Apple Park in Cupertino, California? It is the company's first in-person event since the COVID-19 pandemic.
Apple appears to be expanding manufacturing of the new iPhone 14 to India shortly after its release. According to Bloomberg, Apple intends to begin manufacturing the iPhone 14 in India about two months after the product's initial release outside of China. According to sources familiar with the situation, Apple has been "working with suppliers to ramp up manufacturing in India and shorten the lag in production of the new iPhone."
The iPhone 13 Pro comes with 128GB of storage, which is sometimes insufficient. So, will Apple finally increase the base storage to 256GB? According to some leaks, this will be the case. It would be nice, and even with a price increase, the iPhone 14 Pro might suddenly appear to be a very appealing proposition. But we'll have to wait and see what strategy Apple takes.
It looks like Apple will have a tough time convincing investors. According to Bloomberg, Apple's stock is down before the release of the iPhone 14, which seems to be a common trend before most iPhone launches. Apple's stock has fallen 13% this year, according to Bloomberg, and this year may mark their first annual decline since 2018. For Apple, investors will be closely watching how the company prices the new iPhones, especially the iPhone 14 Pro series, which could command a higher premium this year.
When it comes to fast charging, Apple has a reputation for being slow or at least lagging behind Android competitors. While Xiaomi and Realme provide 120W and 150W charging in some cases, Apple's iPhones are only capable of 20W. However, it appears that the iPhone 14 Pro will support 35W fast charging. Naturally, Apple will not include the charger in the box. However, the new iPhones will charge much faster.
Apple appears to be sticking with the iPhone 14 Plus name after all. A new Twitter leak claims to show cases for the iPhone 14 Plus—yes, it is called Plus rather than Max. However, this is not a confirmation of the name that Apple will choose.
Apple's September event is also when we'll learn when the next version of iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and watchOS will be available. Apple's iOS 16, macOS, and watchOS 9 will also be available next week. Interestingly, Apple has confirmed that iPadOS 16 will be released in October. Apple appears to be taking its time perfecting the new 'Stage Manager' feature on iPadOS 16.
iPhone 13 vs iPhone 14: Worth the hype?
The iPhone 14 is unquestionably one of the most anticipated devices. After all, it is the most affordable option on the list, starting at Rs 79,900 in India. However, the iPhone 14 may not be that different from the iPhone 13. For one thing, Apple may stick with the A15 processor in the new iPhone, which means the performance difference may be minimal. Second, Apple is not expected to significantly improve the cameras on the iPhone 14 series. Furthermore, the notch on the iPhone 14 will most likely remain. We'll have to wait and see how Apple updates the iPhone 14 to persuade users to upgrade.
When it comes to Apple events, one should never assume to know everything. After all, Apple usually has one or two surprise announcements up its sleeve. We're not sure if there will be a 'one more thing' at this event, but Apple will almost certainly reveal something that the tipster missed. Is it going to be a new Apple Watch SE 2? Maybe an update to the AirPods Max? A new iPad is unlikely, but anything can happen.
According to MacRumors, Apple is planning to release the iPhone 14 lineup, as well as the new Watch Series 8, and a new 'Pro' version of the brand's Watch. Along with the entry-level iPad, we expect the new AirPods Pro.
The Apple iPhone 14 is expected to be priced around Rs. 79,990, while the iPhone 14 Max is expected to be priced around Rs 90,000 for the base variant.
It was previously reported by Apple analyst Ming Chi-Kuo that Apple may raise the price of its Pro series of devices. On the pricing front, the iPhone 14 Pro will cost $1,099 (approximately Rs 87,838.12), while the iPhone 14 Pro Max will cost $1,199. (around Rs 95,830.67).
